Lenovo Center

One of the Largest College Basketball Facilities in the Nation

Lenovo Center provides players and fans with every possible amenity and luxury, including spacious concourses, comfortable seats, a state-of-the-art scoreboard, red and white NC State decor, plush locker rooms and functional meeting rooms.

With 19,700 red seats, the Wolfpack’s den is among the largest college basketball facilities in the nation. More than 3,000 courtside seats have been designed in a pit-type area for NC State’s most vocal fans: its students. Since Lenovo Center opened in 1999-2000, NC State has finished every year in the top 25 nationally in attendance.

A Hub for Community

Lenovo Center welcomes over 1.5 million guests and plays host to more than 150 events including major concert tours and family shows.

Designed for Connection

Lenovo Center encompasses approximately 700,000 square feet. Four different seating levels can accommodate a seating capacity of up to 20,000.

More than 25 years

Lenovo Center doors opened for business in October 1999, representing the culmination of the collaborative efforts of a unique partnership known as the Centennial Authority.
